James and the Giant Peach - The Children’s Theatre Association of San Francisco

When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion that creates a tremendous peach, launching him on a journey of enormous proportions. Inside the giant peach, James meets human-sized insects with equally oversized personalities. Together, they embark on an adventure after the peach rolls into the ocean, facing challenges like hunger, sharks, and plenty of disagreements. Thanks to James’ quick wit and creativity, the group learns to work together, forming a close-knit, unconventional family. Their dangerous voyage culminates when they spot the Empire State Building, marking the end of one journey and the beginning of lifelong friendships.
